Pitot all kinds of sensor is used to measure the speed of the airplane. It is a differential Pressure Sensor . It measures the difference between a static port (not in the air stream) and a Pitot tube which is directly placed in the path of Nagano keiki Pressure sensor air flow.When the plane is stationary, the pressure in both the tubes is equal and abs speed sensor the air speed is zero. When the plane is moving, air enters the pitot mazda 6 suction control valve . This causes the pressure difference between the suction control valve and the pitot tube. An internal amplifier creates an amplified voltage output and hence the sensor can be connected directly to Speed Sensor and data acquisition systems. The output voltage changes with the difference in pressure between the two ports.VW & AUDI SERIES PEUGEOT & CITROEN SERIES RENAULT SERIES VOLVO SERIES
